You're incredibly productive! Nice stuff, I really like your Leos.
Nice job on the Tulpan 240mm too. Is it a conversion?

Re: Chrisswim Stuff.
Thank you Foxbat.
Not all items are freshly painted.
The 2S4 come in two pieces. I picked them up somewhere.
But I can get more.

“Engineer” Fuchs
I bought several of these that had stuff on top. Some I modified or rearranged. I did add the LMG up front.

Re: Chrisswim Stuff.
Thank you Mike. Working to deploy a “TOP Secret” vehicle! Do not tell anyone… thank you.
Proof of concept vehicle, EM-50

The AIFV for deployment, RAM paint, further training, etc.

QUESTION FOR YOU!!
1. Should try to paint one essentially as a motor home and one as the armored EM-50? Covers over the wheels, Missiles up on the roof, m.g. sticking out from the headlights? Perhaps a tube above the drivers are and a sighting system.
2. Some sort of a drone launch device on the roof?
GIVE you FEEDBACK. Thank you.

Re: Chrisswim Stuff.
Camo netting looks great Chris!
I would do 1 EM-50 and the other as a motorhome. Might come in handy for civilian feeling the battlefield or something. Might be a fun wargame objective: the President is on a camping trip! Or maybe it just looks like a motor home and it's actually a listening post in the woods near the border.

Re: Chrisswim Stuff.
Mike thank you your feedback.
Should I work on a satellite dish? Large or small on for the roof? CB radio antenna?

Re: Chrisswim Stuff.
Tanker Trailers
Had to find some Hemtt fuel/water tanks. I have surplus from cutting up Hemtts and kitbashing when I made 5-axle and used 20ft conex boxes, created the Centurion AAA, (CWIS on a Hemtt), etc. I merged the FMTV 1083 wheel base with the Hemtt fuel tank. Did some cutting and snipping.

Here is one Avatar Beer trailer behind a Hemtt tanker. Each capable of holding 2500 gallons.

OH, GOD, NO! It was PURE FICTION! I actually worked in the training barracks featured in Stripes! as a second lieutenant company training officer. Bill Murray was, and is, A first class jerk.
